Breast Reduction Surgery May Improve Health, Confidence

Excessively large breasts may present painful symptoms including back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, and skin irritation issues. You may be a good candidate for breast reduction surgery if you have one or more these conditions: • Breasts that are too large in proportion to your body
• Heavy breasts with nipples and areolas that point down
• One breast much larger than the other
• Back, neck, shoulder pain
• Irritated skin under your breasts
• Poor self confidence due to large breasts
• Unable to perform physical activity due to large breasts
Excessively large breasts are a very serious problem, but it is one that can often be corrected with surgery. An extremely qualified and experienced cosmetic surgeon with expertise in breast issues can help you. Breast reduction is a surgery that can often be performed regardless of your age, but your plastic surgeon will recommend that you wait to have this surgery until you are fully developed. Breast feeding and childbirth may affect the size and shape of your breasts, so you should be sure you are not having any more children before committing to breast reduction surgery. While many women seek to enlarge their breasts with breast augmentation, many of you out there know full well how painful and uncomfortable excessively large breasts can be. You may be the envy of many women with small breasts, but they do not realize what a burden large breasts can be. You need to know that just like cosmetic surgeons can make breasts larger, they can also make them smaller. Breast Reduction Surgery The most common method plastic surgeons reduce breast size is by making three incisions: one around the areola, one that runs vertically from the bottom edge of the areola to the crease under the breast, and a third that follows the natural curve of the crease of the breast. Your cosmetic surgeon will make these incisions and then remove excess breast tissue, fat, and skin, and the nipple and areola will be moved to a higher position. The areola is also made smaller. Following surgery, you will be given very specific instructions on what you can and cannot do. If you notice any bleeding, signs of infection, or anything else out of the ordinary, you should contact your surgeon immediately.
